whose thumb would you rather live under, A) someone very controlling who enforces compliance by physical violence, or B) someone very controlling who enforces compliance by holding your ability to consider yourself a good person hostage?

Fair. I voted B because people who self-identity as a "good person" are less likely to do good deeds as they believe they have less karmic debt to repay, and because ego death is far from fatal, rather it's an important step in the journey to enlightenment.

where should the feeling of identifying as a "good person" originate from? who is the arbiter of goodness? quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
